About The Gunter Hotel

The Gunter is a hotel beyond historic—it’s legendary.

The Gunter is where San Antonio has celebrated moments big and small for over 116 years, and it’s easy to see why. Both timeless and ahead of its time, every square inch is designed to inspire. Our architecture is straight out of an era when people expected to be awed — step into our lobby and see for yourself what giving a damn feels like. Our kitchens boast a smorgasbord of culinary hits and have a longstanding history of soul in a city known for good eating. If nightlife is your passion, we’re anything but sleepy — the studio bar, lobby bar, and speakeasy are open late for conversations that just don’t want to end. And just steps from all the best sites in the city, you won’t have to worry about the walkin’ blues. Speaking of, only at The Gunter can you trace the footsteps of history to room 414 where Robert Johnson changed music forever, and a new sound was born. You’ll hear echoes of an energetic past buzzing around every corner, and colorful stories filling all 12 floors — we’ve welcomed legendary artists, musical pilgrims, curious seekers, and hopefully, you. You’ll find everything you need to craft a legendary evening in the center of everything.
